Tom, the Moss catalog has a recommendation to use #264-386 (480#) to lower the rubber bumper B. That's what I used and it worked out perfectly. There's a chart in the paper catalog showing ride heights for the various springs and it indeed shows the #264-381 as giving the HIGHEST ride height of any spring--those springs will not lower your car.

Thank you Phil. What I'm pissed off about is I specifically asked for the part number after explaining my car and what I was trying to do, so now I have to do it all over again and the car will be laid up while I wait for parts.

I used 264 396 Road / Sprint 550 lb and it lowered my front by 13.5 measured from the wheel cap to the center of the chrome. Its stiffer than what I took out but it dropped the front end. My B is rubber bumpered 78 which I put chrome bumpers on and is a GM V6.

First, I very much appreciate everyone's help on let me know what worked to get the right right height.

Second, I wanted to give credit where due in public that Moss was very responsive in fixing the error and made it a very straightforward thing to resolve. I would specifically like to thank Matt and Leif from Moss for their help.

Tom - Your issue pointed out one of the problems we have had moving to a new web platform. In the catalog and on the old website, we had a list of recommended parts specifically for easily and reasonably lowering a rubber bumper car safely without structural work.

We lost the web plate when moving to the new platform, so only the catalog listing remained and it is a bit buried in the busy suspension section.

Leif and I recommended that we build a kit of the parts, since that will make it easy to list on the web and be easier for our customers (and salespeople) to get the right parts the first time.
